#4 MIT, Karraker Make History

The nationally-ranked #4 Engineers took down Wheelock College 71-47 last
night for their 12th win in a row and the best start in the 111-year
history of the program. Also setting the history mark was Jamie "Cakes"
Karraker. On his seventh trifecta of the night, "Cakes" notched his
232nd career three-pointer, surpassing the great Jimmy Bartolotta (2009)
on the all-time three-point list. Through Dec. 11, Karraker is second
in the nation in 3FG made per game (4.4).

The Engineers also saw valuable contributions from the bench, including
three blocks and a dunk from high-flying freshman Matt Redfield, as well
as 4 assists from veteran "Lieutenant" Dan Mccue. Tech out-rebounded
the visiting Wildcats 35-23, dished out 22 assists on 29 makes, and shot
42% from three.
